What is another word for oleaster?
Pronunciation: [ˈə͡ʊlastə] (IPA) 
Oleaster, also known as wild olive or silverberry, is a fruit-bearing shrub or small tree commonly found in dry areas of Europe, Asia, and North Africa. Although oleaster is a commonly used term for this plant, there are several synonyms that are equally valid. These synonyms include elaeagnus, dogwood, or cherry laurel. Each of these plants has slight variations in their leaves, flowers, and fruits, but all share a certain hardiness and resistant to drought and pests. Oleaster is often prized for its edible and nutritious fruits, which have a tangy and slightly sweet flavor. It is also cultivated as an ornamental plant in gardens and parks.
